Unfortunately it’s a misguided bit of legislation that all new cars are going to afflicted with. Manufacturers are not allowed to make it a one press option to turn off and it must be reactivated after disabling it (when you start the car again).

Using other software to permanently disable it will invalid your insurance as it will no longer comply with the misguided safety legislation.

Can you bookmark lane assist as a widget? I’ve tried but it just gives me parking assist.

Never managed it; the best solution I found was to add it to the fav list on the top right white square icon, “only” 2 presses to disable and a 3rd to exit the screen. Ford solution is a button under your left thumb on the steering wheel, best option I’ve ever driven.

OBD11 - programmed to remember last setting. You can switch it on and off by the usual way, but when you turn it off, it stays off. Lane Assist active is not a requirement for insured driving.

I got a Carly OBDII reader/programmer but it's no good for a Born - it can't read most modules. I reckon VCDS maybe the answer. Anyone near Colchester with it ? Happy to travel to get the option set to have it remember the last setting.

You may want to look at OBD11 https://obdeleven.com/products?carBrand=Seat the pay per use model is different but given how many changes you are likely to make, it isn't expensive

Cheers for the info chap. I went to buy the basic one and it's out of stock - damn!!! I'll keep an eye out for one and then if needs be I'll just have to get the next-Gen version of it and pay a bit more as I need to have that Lane Assist off!
